Dixon… State Representative Tom
Demmer (R-Dixon) issued the following statement following Gov. Bruce Rauner’s
State of the State Address:

“The Governor’s address today can
be summed up in one word: “Opportunity”.
We have the opportunity to work together in a bipartisan fashion to fix
our State. We have the opportunity to
create jobs and bring back economic prosperity.
We have the opportunity to invest in education and continue to be a
leader in education funding. We have the
opportunity to reform our criminal justice system and reduce the violence that
plagues the City of Chicago. While these
issues can be viewed as challenges as well, I appreciated the fact that
Governor Rauner sees the opportunities that exist to get Illinois back on the
right track,” said Rep. Tom Demmer on Wednesday following the Governor’s
address in Springfield.
